I disagree with the suggesting if they are individually mapped they should be tagged building=house, they are still a terrace so building=terrace is still appropriate and more detailed.

By my understanding, the building=terrace tag is to be used when an entire set (terrace) of row houses is mapped as a single building way. Then the individual residences can be indicated using address nodes or address interpolation.

If each individual row house is mapped as its own building way, each should be tagged building=house.

(Per the wiki, building=terrace is for "a single way used to define the outline of a linear row of residential dwellings, each of which normally has its own entrance, which form a terrace (row-house in North American English). Consider defining each dwelling separately using 'house'.")
